Thanks again. Do you know how I would look into the galleries of those who have been kind enough to comment on my work? I cant seem to find a route.

This is another stunning piece Gilly. I like all your paintings, you have a great portfolio. The only way I know to look into another galleries is on Google, by typing the name of the artist followed by "painter online"( I am sure there is another way!)
